Cornwall Ontario – CFN like all media outlets needs revenue to survive. Our original business model was to support local business at reasonable rates. In fact we didn’t have digital ads (like adsense) until the City initiated a conspiratorial boycott that impacted our roster of advertisers, many of whom were threatened and bribed to pull… Continue reading Yes, CFN Now Has a Paywall for PREMIUM CONTENT Oct 29 2018

Randy Sauve Rants as Comicfest Flops at Civic Complex 102918
Cornwall Ontario – There’s a certain ignorance and nastiness in Cornwall that’s embodied in people like my former neighbor Randy Sauve. There’s no crime in not being bright or capable of running one’s life without baby bonus. There is when you stalk and rant after people who can create and build things without government assistance… Continue reading Randy Sauve Rants as Comicfest Flops at Civic Complex 102918

Cornwall Ontario – With the demise of yet another hockey management team there are rumblings and even a piece written by that mincing lifeguard, Hugo Rodrigues. Cornwall Ontario is a hockey town.

The subsidies given to the Cornwall… Continue reading No Hugo, Cornwall Is a Hockey Town – City Hall to Blame for Team’s Demise. by Jamie Gilcig 022218

Hugo Rodrigues Pandering to Cornwall Over Wasted Amazon HQ2 Bid by Gilcig 102817
Cornwall Ontario – It’s tough being number one sometimes. It means the jealous kids won’t play with you much; at least the underdeveloped and really immature ones. For example I have a lot of media peers outside of Cornwall that I get along with, and even sometimes collaborate with, but not here in Cornwall. When… Continue reading Hugo Rodrigues Pandering to Cornwall Over Wasted Amazon HQ2 Bid by Gilcig 102817
Amazon PR Stunt by Bob Peters Highlights Reason for Change in Economic Dev092117
Cornwall Ontario – Economic Development is one of the biggest envelopes in the City of Cornwall’s budget. It also now entails tourism. Sadly, under the reign of Mark Boileau & Bob Peters it’s been an underperforming joke. Oddly enough Boileau was promoted up and Peters was given tourism and some outside agencies; IE more responsibility.… Continue reading Amazon PR Stunt by Bob Peters Highlights Reason for Change in Economic Dev092117
Bob Peters Clique Burning Through Cornwall Cash While Staff Get Wages Frozen? MAY 26, 2017
Cornwall Ontario – Can you imagine a magazine called “Cornwall Living” not really about living in Cornwall? The vanity magazine is grossly subsidized by Bob Peters and the City via its Economic Development department.

City Hall in Cornwall Needs to Smarten Up, Not Get into PR Game by Jamie Gilcig – AUG 10, 2015
It’s always interesting to see spin emanate from City Hall. It’s rarely graceful. Bob Peters and Kevin Lajoie have teamed to essentially “Brand” Cornwall. It’s been an odd failure of an exercise and some of my fellow journalists have questioned why the City is essentially trying to do our jobs? It’s the… Continue reading City Hall in Cornwall Needs to Smarten Up, Not Get into PR Game by Jamie Gilcig – AUG 10, 2015

11th Councilor – Is Bob Peters Going to Get Mark Boileau’s Job for Rigging the Chem Tanks on Cornwall’s Waterfront?
CORNWALL Ontario – The buzz around City Hall via the Chem Tanks is that shortly Economic Development head Mark Boileau will be shifted out into Stephen Alexander’s gig, and that Bob “Vienna Sausage” Peters will take over the department.

Team Cornwall Year In Review Sham for 2013 – The Year of Sucking & Blowing by Jamie Gilcig
Cornwall Ontario – I stopped going to the Team Cornwall Year in Review two years ago when I resigned from the group until they cleaned house. The group, which does almost nothing but a few rah rah events essentially should be an arm of the City’s Economic Development Department. They even give out hockey… Continue reading Team Cornwall Year In Review Sham for 2013 – The Year of Sucking & Blowing by Jamie Gilcig
